⚡ Attoseconds to Seconds: the quick answer

1 as = 1 × 10⁻¹⁸ s 1 attosecond equals 1 × 10⁻¹⁸ seconds

To convert attoseconds to seconds, multiply the value by 1 × 10⁻¹⁸. To go the other way, multiply seconds by 1 × 10¹⁸ to get attoseconds.

↔ Convert seconds to attoseconds instead

🧮 Formula

Attoseconds to Seconds
s = as × 1 × 10⁻¹⁸
Seconds to Attoseconds
as = s × 1 × 10¹⁸

Where

  • as = the time in attoseconds
  • s = the time in seconds
Every unit here is defined by its time in seconds, so the conversion factor is (seconds per attosecond) ÷ (seconds per second).
